The nightmare of the Galaxy Note 7 went from bad to worse — in just a few days. Not well began to emerge reports of cases in which alleged replacement units and “safe” from the shot phone is burned or exploded last week, the telephone operators began to stop the sales and the exchange of the Note 7.
And then, a couple of days later (the 11th of October, to be exact), Samsung decided to set the last nail in the coffin of your darling Note 7, a tabléfono who presented with fanfare and received a very good critique.
The headache of Samsung became a nightmare since the beginning of September when it emerged reports of phones exploding or burning. The company acted with haste when you call the retirement world of the device. And, at the end of September, resumed the sales and exchanges of the phone for replacement units to be “safe” and devoid of the problem of the battery that had afflicted. But it wasn’t even a week when I again began to emerge reports of fires and explosions arising out of a Note 7 ‘insurance’. We even evacuated a Southwest Airlines plane because of an alleged Note 7 replacement caught fire on the plane.
From there, everything was in a tailspin for Samsung: the operators began to stop the sales and the exchange of the device, the Safety Commission Consumer Products (CPC, for its acronym in English) asked consumers who apagasen the phone; Samsung, subsequently, joined this call. And, on Tuesday 11 October, Samsung stated the final death of the flagship phone that launched in advance to compete with the iPhone 7 and 7 Plus.
Now, in an attempt to make amends for its miserable reputation and to compensate the fans of the brand and the consumers that have purchased a Note 7, the company is offering a credit of$ 100 to those who return the phone and opt to exchange it for another Samsung device.
